In the midst of a large virtual Battle Ex (read - computerized) When the power failed. Now concerning myself with thumb twiddling & waiting.
After a somewhat miserable day spent getting soaked, some welcome news. Our beef order is ready Thurs. Great day for me poor day to be a cow
Last day of ranges compete. plus 2 and beating down rain all day. that is all
8 hours on the range today while nursing the pain that comes with being a Blue Bombers fan. I would ask for a padre but he’s an NFL fan.
In an hour or so Tass and I are off to watch the Bombers play for the Grey Cup…managing expectations http://bit.ly/sbeSiK
Last night went to a good friends Birthday celebration and then watched special edition of LoTR on BluRay (well worth it by the way). Today I work and then watch the Blue Bombers take home the cup.

Of Range work and Fascism
Another busy day running Ranges. Laugh for today - A MCpl ordered a group to line up, a small voice from the back row - “fascist”
Torchwood Finale = Great but now I wait
I finally watched the last two episodes of Torchwood, It was absolutely great but I’m pissed I’ll have to wait months for the series restart.
Sara Drummond, large boobed traitor, is, in the last 5 minutes discovered and dealt with. Absolutely great stuff and balance is restored to the force.
Spent another great day conducting ranges. The weather was fantastic & it promises to be warmer tomorrow. http://imgur.com/UELm2
Great day spent on the range reminding myself that 90% of the population doesn’t get paid to fire assault rifles.
Running Range > Fun than Officing
Pleasant day spent making sure training went well. For the next 10 days I’ll be in the training area and not in my office :)
Leliefontien an explaination in brief.
Mellow Sunday, Last day of Leliefontein 2011.
Busy day, Church Service conducted by Padre Turner, then Crepes in Pembroke.
Tonight I worked on Range stuff for this coming week and made ThaiChicken wraps w/Coucous on the side, The Thai Chicken sauce was excellent and coucous was a pleasant surprise. ( I Thought it was a grain or rice and it turns out to be more of a small bit of pasta)
All Ranks Dance went very well, Off to Church this morning & a really fun Leliefontein week draws to a close. Then start X-Mas planning.
Medical Trip
Met with my doctor today who confirmed that I would require a day surgery to correct my knee problem.

Tales of Medical appts and Van rides
Tomorrow, I see a doctor for a knee repair consult. I guess I jumped out of trucks too often. As I’ve got older I made sure they weren’t moving, both the van and of late the knees
New discovery, the most mentally insulting and intellectually nauseating TV program - Project Runway. I bet gays are embarrassed by the extreme gayness
Excellent bullshit

Sunday ..
Donna and I watched “Copycat” this morning, Some things don’t stand the test of time all that well.
CSI and sunglasses
Watched CSI Miami with D tonight. What have I learned. Dramatic acting seems to need sunglasses. Deliver line, sunglasses off, then sunglasses on then off, then witty comment then sunglasses off then on ….

Wine night - Lunenburg Cherry
Donna & I are getting low on wine so logically we broke out one of our last remaining bottles tonight. Local NS wine but really good. Its always a risk buying local wine but we almost always do in order to support the local industry. Local wine especially fruit based can vary greatly but this cherry flavoured goodness from the eastern shore is really enjoyable.
Green Lantern
In brightest day, in blackest night, ….Donna and I are watching Green Lantern, which sucks somewhat less than expected http://i.imgur.com/2Rnqj.jpg
Pulled Pork
Its Pulled pork sandwiches tonight. Nic had some at work the other day and therefore I had little choice and it has been months since I made it.http://imgur.com/Z5MRQ

Nov 11, 11 the opportunity to honour those who served with distinction & often paid with their lives. Their sacrifice is our example. http://bit.ly/txsovI
First day back on garrison after nearly 6 weeks away. Glad to be back.
Savoury Crepes with Italian Sausage for Dinner time. I say Dinner time because the time change had me serving dinner at 11. http://bit.ly/tYjBmG
I look at it this way. Two guys are working side by side in a factory in Shanghai. They look at what they are assembling for the North American market and obviously draw the conclusion that we are complete idiots.
Mitch Hedberg wisdom
I always enjoy my Sundays, this one is slightly...
Sunday morning. Extended by an hour thanks to the time change. Outstanding.
A Busy 5 November 11

And Today is the time change, well tonight actually, we fall back one hour.
And Donna, Tass and I are headed off to Ottawa for the day. It should be excellent.
And Finally our neighbour across the street, Sam, turns 2 today.
Ullrich's on Main
Great leave day, Donna & I found an excellent Schnitzel place in Pembroke
Ullrich’s On Main
View Larger Map
I ordered a Schnitzel with sautéed mushrooms and some fries on the side. I would have prefered a nice plate of spatzel but hey you take what is on the menu. For starters we has showed up yesterday at the location and had been told all they had at the moment was brewed coffee....
Watched the first episode of Terra Nova, liked it. At least it didn’t try to be thought provoking or challenging. Nothing to harsh my mellow
Chocolate eating & reality TV
Eating Halloween Chocolate watching Biggest Loser with Donna, the guilt is exquisite. http://ping.fm/3B9tZ

I’m on leave ‘til Monday soo…Tonight’s TV experience will be the Terra Nova pilot - Apparently in the near future people destroy the earth & have to leave.
It appears they have recycled props from another dinosaur show, Jurassic Park??
I promise to try to be good but the level of predictability is huge, some guesses:
